@luisalasnjr Congratulations on your admit! Thanks for the reply. I understand that UT is a huge university but I find this behavior unprofessional. Initially UT Austin was my first choice but I rather go to a school which atleast gives me time to explore the course. I mean it's already April 6 and they haven't sent out most of their decisions. I am quite happy with my school, but would have love to hear back from UT before accepting the offer as I did pay a hefty application fee. Hope my experience would serve as lesson to future applicants!

@gblMy friend is still waiting for a response for MS&E. He had his interview on March 15. Don't know what's going on with Columbia this time! They are taking a lot of time!

Thanks for replying @hellz2dayeah. I am in conundrum. I have a great admit from a school but I wanted to wait for UT Austin. However, they are taking an awful amount of time to send decisions. I have checked that all the departments(ORIE, Aero, EECS, material sci etc) have had there results. This makes me question the general attitude of the Mechanical dept. towards it's students. I mean it has been more than 4 months and still they haven't send out the results. Do you know anything in this context about the school/ department?

My subfield is controls and dynamics. If they are going to make us wait till April 15, I am wondering the kind of attitude they have in this department. Literally all other departments have recieved there results. Its more than 4 months now!! Most probably I would choose my other choice over Austin. I don't want to wait this long. What all admits do you have @Desolate-Bill?
-
@hellz2dayeah Congratulations on your admits! Is there a specific reason you didn't opt for UT Austin? I have applied for there mech MS programme. I am curious about how good there department is in terms of funding, job opportunities? Any insight you have would be a great!

Actually I have had the same status "Attention: Your file has been forwarded to the Graduate Committee for review." since Feb. I am not sure if it means something. But it's a positive sign that your status changed, it definitely means things are moving. I saw that they gave out aerospace results. I guess mech should be soon. Yes, I am an international candidate. What is your subfield (design , thermals etc)?
-
Thanks ! Hope you get in. Would definitely update if I hear something!

For Berkeley, You should only choose Meng if you are comfortable spending that kind of money and are confident that you can land a job in 10 months with curriculum. Also, remember the cost of living in California is exorbitantly high, so it would take a lot of time to save and repay student loans. Congrats on your admits!

@Desolate-Bill Thanks for your response! I myself guessed the same. Just wished I knew this before applying! Wasted 100$ Does anyone know about UT Austin? On the results section someone said that decisions would be out by April. Don't know what that means (April end or beginning)
-
Is anyone still waiting for results of MS Mechanical from UT Austin and U Wisconsin Madison? It's really unprofessional of the schools to not send the results out as April 15 is approaching. Please share any thoughts/info you have. Really want to be out of limbo! Thanks!

I have been admitted to UIUC focusing on decision & control sciences. I don't know a lot about Cornell but UIUC has a really flexible programme. I am assuming you would take courses from a number of departments for controls, so flexibility is a real plus. UIUC is definitely more renowned in the industry, however if you are interested in academia, Cornell might have an edge.

@Jain0909 Do you mind sharing when you were interviewed for Columbia ?

@SP09 Do you know if they redirect MSE applicants to other programmes (MSOR etc), if rejected from MS&E?
